Like others, I was very pleased with the quality of this Solo rolling computer case from the moment I opened the box. It is made of thick, durable ripstop nylon, has very good zippers on its numerous pockets, rolls easily on its in-line-skate-type wheels, and the expandable/collapsible handle is quite sturdy and easy to operate. Moreover, the handle can be collapsed and hidden within the case, turning it into a standard-looking brief case for carry-on when traveling by air.
I particularly like the numerous large pockets for my files, books, etc., and the smaller pockets for pens, business cards, and the like. The laptop pocket is large, well padded, and secure thanks to an adjustable velcro strap. It's also quite easy to access the computer, although I believe it will have to be removed from the bag to go through airport security. There are also a number of storage areas for the computer's AC adapter, power cord, and other accessories.
One caution -- while this bag is ideal for business day trips, it really doesn't have enough space to double as an overnight case unless you're an extremely light packer.
For the money (I paid .21, no tax, free shipping from Amazon), this Solo bag is a great deal, much better than similarly priced bags I saw at the local giant computer store.

Love this Rolling Laptop Case
This case is fantastic. Rolls great and pulls easy, even when loaded. Doesn't tip over either. Plenty of room for my laptop, cords, books, folders, and general office supplies with room left over. Looks gread and very well made. Great Case.
Nice - Just What I Needed
I purchased this product based on the postive reviews, which were on point. Product is constructed well and is of high-quality. The size is just right; not too bulky. I looked at several other brands in local stores, and none in the same price range were as nice (closest were to more). I also like that I can access the laptop and overnight compartment with one zipper. These are two seperate compartments on the other 17" models I looked at, and on the 15" model I own. More than pleased.
Rolling laptop case.
My grand daughter is graduating from High School and will start College in August. I bought her this Rolling laptop case to help her get her laptop, books, etc from class to class. I am hoping it will meet her needs. I will know in 2 weeks, when she receives it as her gift from me and her grandfather. My youngest son said it was great. He would like to have one for work. I guess I will be ordering more.
Better Than I expected
The handle for my 17" Laptop case broke, so I needed to make a decision quickly on a replacement, but stay within budget. I chose this one based on price and the limited pictures and I have been pleasantly surprised. In fact, I like it much more than the one it replaced - which was twice the price. Lots of room for my Laptop and can work as an 'overnight' also. Easy access to the Laptop for Airport Security. Seems to be well designed, and sturdy.
